SL-4000 ODOR ELIMINATOR      
        WHAT IT IS & HOW IT WORKS

SL-4000 ODOR ELIMINATOR is the result of years of research in the science of Odor Control. Our manufacturing and development company has had over 25 years of experience in the development of diverse, new technologies and holds several patents based upon their research. Our products are all manufactured in our modern 100,000 square foot manufacturing facility in New Jersey. We maintain an active research and development program to allow our company to utilize and enhance odor control technology.

SL-4000 is a concentrated odor control product; formulated to eliminate mal odors associated with municipal garbage and sludge. The product is effective at low use dilutions offering optimum performance and low use cost. When properly diluted for the specific application, SL-4000 is completely safe.

The extremely low toxicity ingredients in SL-4000 include many components on the FDA “GRAS” list of cosmetic and food additives. All components are biodegradable. As indicated on the safety data sheet, the product should not be ingested and contact of the concentrate with skin and eyes should be avoided. When used in an atomizing application, it should be diluted one part of concentrate to between 750 and 1,500 parts of water. When properly used at these dilutions, the product is non-irritating.

Although SL-4000 contains no hazardous components, use of excessive concentrations in atomizing applications may cause irritation. The product should always be properly diluted. Our technical sales representative will assist in determining the proper dilution for optimum performance without adverse effects on personnel.

ODOR NEUTRALIZATION     The odor neutralization process is effective against certain specific types of waste related odors. These are typically derivatives of sulfur and ammonia. SL-4000 contains a highly effective odor neutralization system to address this class of odors and convert them into odor free, stable, non-harmful compounds. Extremely good results can be achieved in a closed system, such as a scrubber, where directed contact with the odorous air stream is achieved. In a transfer station or an open landfill, the neutralization process is less effective due to the large areas and air volumes needing control and limitations on saturation contact. The correct product application system utilized will greatly enhance the performance of the product and allow the achievement of the best results. NCM Odor Control’s experts will work with you in the selection of the most suitable system for your site.

ODOR ELIMINATION Odor elimination is the completion of the process begun by the neutralizing components. SL-4000 is formulated with a balanced combination of natural botanicals and non-toxic odor modifiers, which are utilized to change the perception of malodor. This process involves the modification of the perceived malodors generated by waste to be interpreted by our olfactory senses as non-offensive. The goal of this step in the odor elimination process is to develop a relatively neutral odor condition. This can be compared to a vacuum waiting for something we recognize as pleasant to fill it. At this point, the synergy of a compatible fragrance utilized in the formulation will effectively direct the olfactory senses. This is an essential step in the completion of the odor elimination process.

The fragrance can be determined by geographic or personal preference. SL-4000 has been formulated with several compatible fragrance notes to meet these varied preferences or operational requirements. This completes the process where malodors that have been subjected to neutralization, modification and redirection. The final result is ODOR ELIMINATION.
